Asus ZenFone Max Pro M2

“The Asus ZenFone Max Pro (M2) offers performance that matches yesteryear flagship performance and a design that is contemporary at a price that is competitive. Factoring in the stock Android experience, a very good display, above-average cameras, and a timely update schedule, the ZenFone Max Pro (M2) counts among the best mid-range smartphones under ₹15,000 (US$200) that can easily replace your flagship-killer without you even realizing it.”

“If battery life is all that matters to you, then the ZenFone Max Pro M2 is your best bet, and you won't be making any major compromises in other areas with it. However, if you want a better camera, or more powerful performance, or more feature-rich software experience, there are a lot of other choices out there, which are worth considering.”

“Overall, the ASUS Zenfone Max Pro M2 is a good upgrade to the Max Pro M1 when is comes to performance and camera at an additional cost of Rs. 2000 compared to the predecessor. Even though this doesn’t have the same metal build, the design looks attractive. However, it misses out on the USB Type-C port and fast charging once again.”

“For now, all we can say is that you should get the ZenFone Max Pro M2 if you want a big battery smartphone that lasts long and won't break that easily if you accidentally drop it. It should do well as a movie watching phone but if you're using WiFi to stream, the lack of 5Ghz support means it could be a bit unsuitable. Nonetheless, the RM859 price does make it a device to consider if you're on a budget.”
